SAFFRON EXPERIENCE (feat. THE FOOD AND WINE ROAD OF GRAN MONFERRATO)

15 October - 30 November 2026

Cavatore
Activity description

Picking saffron means discovering the history of an age-old spice, which requires attention and very special care. A single bloom between October and November over a ten-day period following nature, delicate hand-picking at dawn when the flowers are still closed and moisture cannot damage the precious stigmas inside. At the end, sipping a cup of saffron tea, you will admire the ancient farm tools and the "nomadic" beehives of the farm. To complete the experience in Acqui Terme tour and wine tasting at a winery on the Aromatic Road.
